The Freak, Berserk Weather Of 1934

1934 and 1936 were unprecedented years for heat and drought in US. But the extreme weather wasn’t just in the US – it was global.  Click on the 1934 LA Times below to see it full sized.

Rather than trying to understand the weather of 1934, US Government scientists simply made it disappear.

Controlling Florida Sea Level Through Taxes

The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present – and is gravely to be regarded. Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.

– President Eisenhower 1960

Climate experts now tell us that four feet of sea level rise is certain by the end of the century, and will drown Florida and the East Coast – unless we send them lots of money, raise taxes, and cut off our fuel supply.

Four feet of sea level rise by the year 2100 would require almost 15 mm/year – more than five times higher than actual measured rates.

Sea Level Trends – Variation of 50-year Mean Sea Level Trends

So let’s do an experiment. Current sea level rise in Florida is about 2.4 mm/year.

What would happen if we magically lowered CO2 levels to 350 PPM?  The historical record shows us that sea level rise would be 2.4 mm/year. How about if we lowered CO2 levels to 300 PPM?  Sea level rise in Florida would still be 2.4 mm/year.  And on the West Coast, there is little or no sea level rise occurring.

Sea Level Trends – State Selection

Apparent sea level rise on the East Coast is primarily due to land sinking, rather than oceans rising. There is no indication that sea level rise is in any way controlled by CO2 levels, taxes or left wing politics.

Government funded climate scientists believe they can get away with any level of fraud, because they were encouraged (and paid) to lie by the Obama administration.  Hopefully that will change soon.

Stupidity – The Old Normal For Jerry Brown And The Left

California Governor Jerry Brown and the BBC have announced that the California wildfires are the new normal, which could happen every year.

California wildfires: Governor brands fires ‘new normal’ – BBC News

The reason nature has forest fires is to clear out overgrowth and forest litter. Once the fuel burns up, you can’t have have another fire in that region until it gets overgrown again.  Fires need fuel to burn, and it takes years for plants to store enough solar energy to produce a large burn again. This should be obvious to anyone with an IQ higher than a turnip, but not to people on the left who believe in imaginary energy sources.

California had very similar global cooling fires during the 1970’s.

Last year, Jerry Brown and the New York Times announced the California permanent drought – right before their wettest winter on record.

Jerry Brown and the New York Times have been saying the identical nonsense for 40 years.

The only difference is that 40 years ago, they blamed the drought on global cooling instead of global warming.

Climate alarmists rank among the stupidest people on Earth, with no memory or understanding of basic scientific principles.

Latest Pictures From The Ice-Free Arctic

Almost the entire Arctic was covered by clouds yesterday (including Greenland) but I found a few breaks in the clouds over Canada and the Hudson Bay.

The 97% Consensus Of Brainless Forecasts By Climate Scientists

Alex Hill, the chief government adviser with the Met Office, told The Scotsman there was no future for skiing in Scotland because climate change would see winters become too warm for regular snowfall.

  • The Scotsman  February 10, 2009

Ten years ago, Welsh and Scottish climate scientists announced the end of snow in Scotland in Wales.

Here is the latest view of Mt. Snowdon. You can’t see much because of the blizzard occurring on the mountain.

Government climate scientists have no idea what they are talking about. They don’t understand, climate, science or integrity. They are destructive parasites wrecking public discourse and policy. And they are responsible for high energy prices which force old people to choose between food and fuel.

Overheated Arctic Update

Guest weatherman Al Franken brings today’s overheated Arctic update.

One year ago, the Washington Post announced that the Arctic is “super-hot” and ice levels were at a record low.

That super hot Arctic air has descended into Europe. I’m up north and will be driving down to London today hoping to avoid the snow.

Europe-wide Next 3 Days Accumulated Snow

Meanwhile, the super-hot Arctic air is also bringing heavy snow to Mexico and South Texas.

And the disappearing Arctic ice is growing rapidly with extent “normal.”

The River Tyne

For people trapped in a two-dimensional world, Chester’s Roman Fort is closed for the winter.

It was extremely windy and close to dark. The clarity of these pictures impressed me.

I played chess on this board at the George Hotel in Chollerford during summer 2008, shortly before writing my first climate article.

Yesterday, my rental car broke down just as I was passing the hotel. So I got another game in.  The rental car company (Green Motion UK) left me stranded in Chollerford, which will be the topic of future blog posts and tweets.

Understanding The Difference Between Weather And Climate

Almost fifteen years ago during July, I nearly got hypothermia from the cold water and air on Britain’s south coast. A few days later Britain had a ten day heatwave, which climate experts immediately blamed on global warming.

06 Aug 2003, 5 – The Guardian at Newspapers.com

Fast forward fifteen years, and ten days of cold is “weather – not climate

Hopefully this explanation makes it clear,

Worst Case Climate Fraud Becoming Increasingly Likely

War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength

  • Socialist Party of Oceania

Desperate climate scientists fraudsters are breathlessly claiming today that the “worst case” warming models are the most accurate.

Actual data shows that essentially all climate models massively overestimate warming.

Government funded climate scientists are desperate to retain funding, and no lie, corruption or fraud is too big for them.
